CELINE HERRERA POV The board meeting went as planned and Delia stepped down for me to take over just like she said she would. I could tell that the smile on her face throughout the process was fake though and I wondered just how long she was going to keep up the charade.Everyone was happy to see me back, but there were so many problems the company was facing that after the reappointment, we all got together to deliberate on how to move the business forward. Delia acted like she didn't know what the problem was as we conversed but I was sure she knew just how low sales had dropped in recent months because of her bad business plan and company funds that couldn't be traced to any activities. We were even falling behind on our annual quotas. "We need to come up with a solution as soon as possible. Our rivals are gaining in on us and even though the other companies are doing fair enough, we as the mother company are far behind on what we should be realizing""You don't have to worry Mr

CELINE HERRERA POV Delia didn't make a scene like I thought she would but I could tell she was dying to, instead she she just swallowed whatever it was she going to say and offered a smile instead. "Oh right, I forgot about that. You should have stopped me when I got into the elevator earlier" she said and stepped away from the door. "As for apologizing to Karen here, I won't be doing that. I only agreed to work on our relationship even though now that I think about it, you've done nothing but try to provoke me all day long. I will tolerate it tho, since I was way worse to you in the past. I just hope you will see my sincerity and treat me better" she said and walked past me."I don't know why you think I am trying to provoke you, Delia. You did something wrong to a person and I asked that you apologize for it. Acting like you're the victim does not make you the victim Delia. If you want to fix our relationship, then you have to fix that about yourself" I said, gave her a pointed st

XAVIER POV. "Stone found one of our hideouts where some of our men were conducting business, Xavier, and he attacked them, he killed a lot of them but just like last time, we managed to kill some of his men too. He's probably going to report back to Belshar and he would know that we are still here" Fuck! "What else do you have to report David" I asked as I finished cuffing Persephone to the platform I had set up and then leaned back to admire the work of my hand."We acquired new soldiers that are ready to join our fight. Most of them are men who have nothing to lose. They've been tested and proved themselves to be reliable" David Said and I smirked as I gripped the face of Persephone in my hand and examined it. "I almost killed her you know," I said staring down at her, "But she came right up to me, stared me in the eyes, and told me to cut her head off, so I knocked her out and took her here instead" I got out, then glanced up at David. "I wonder just how shocked she'd be when sh

CELINE HERRERA POV I didn't know what to feel after I left Antonia. Why would she look for me now, what could she possibly hope to achieve after staying away for so long? Mother suffered because of them so does she even deserve my forgiveness? If they hadn't abandoned us maybe she would have still been alive, and I wouldn't have suffered so much as I did in the hands of Delia and Grandfather because I would have had someone to protect me.I dragged my finger through my hair and let out a sigh."Should we go back to the company ma'am or are you going to make another stop?" the driver asked breaking through the turmoil going on in my head and I met his gaze through the mirror. "Let's head back to the company, I still have something to take care of," I answered and he nodded and started the car. We drove in silence, the car moving slowly through the traffic. I checked the time on my phone and paused when I saw that I'd gotten a message.It was from Belshar and I hastened to open and

DELIA HERRERA POV Belshar had gotten her flowers; beautiful green roses that shone beautifully in the sun. I watched Celine blush, turn, and rush into the company building after they talked for a bit. The sharp pang of pain in my chest as I watched Belshar stare after her made it difficult to breathe."You always get to have the best things, don't you? Why does it have to be you all the time"Enoch was thinking about getting back with her, she was the company's CEO once again and it seemed that Belshar truly loved her. Would my plan with Kail even work? Was he even doing anything? Just how long was I going to wait? And do I truly only want a child from Belshar without him in my life or was that because I knew he hated me so much and I didn't know what to do to get him to like me even just a little bit? Taking a deep breath, I got out of my car instead of heading home like I'd intended and walked toward him. He noticed me approaching and my heart almost stopped as memories flashed

DELIA HERRERA POV The El Salvador club was bustling with rich influential and good-looking people and as I took in the faces of the men walking around, I couldn't help but feel like I'd been missing out a lot. "Damn, it's been a while since I'd been here" I muttered to myself. This had been my most favorite place to spend my nights before I married Enoch. I'd been caged up for too long. When was the last time I even unwinded? Shaking my head, I looked around for Liam while covertly taking in the admiring gazes of the men around me. They were staring blatantly at me, their desire for me clear and I couldn't help but smirk."I guess I still got it" I muttered and flipped my hair. Belshar could only hate me for so long before he fell for my beauty. If I pretend long enough to have changed, he will warm up to me and when Celine dies at the end, I'll be his only shoulder to cry on. The bartender whistled as I stopped in front of him."Delia Herrera, what a pleasure to have you here wi

CELINE HERRERA POV The roses were what my gaze was on, which was why I didn't see Julie turning away from the secretary and heading in my direction until we crashed into each other. Hard.A gasp escaped my lips as I fell to the floor, my eyes widening as I took in the damage the drink she had been holding that got crushed between us had done. The roses had been splashed and so had my dress. Julie was all over me in a second. "Oh, my goodness. I am so sorry, I didn't even see you" she rushed out as she took my hand and pulled me up to my feet. "Are you alright, I slammed into you pretty hard didn't I?" she asked and I nodded as I adjusted my dress and tried to clean away the residue of the drink. I noticed that two of the guards and the secretary were hovering around us, not quite knowing what to do to remedy the situation. "It's alright" I got out then gave them a dismissive wave. "I am totally fine. I'll just talk with Julie here, so you all can get back to your position" I said

CELINE HERRERA POV "What are you..." I panicked as he started to give space between us."Fuck, this is so hard" he growled In frustration. I was more frustrated, but I guess he was much stronger than I was in this little game we were playing. He had more restraints.I didn't. I wanted him so bad, I literally burned with it. So without thinking, I twined my hands around his neck and pressed my lips to his.My action must have surprised him because he made a shocked sound against my mouth, but it only took a few seconds for his body to catch up with mine, his mouth pressing insistently against mine.I couldn't help but feel a bit of thrill that I'd managed to throw him off balance. I liked that I had the power to shock him, to make him unable to resist me. Me.His hungry hands constricted around my waist until there wasn't a breath of room between our two bodies. Until there was no denying the hot, hard length of him against my stomach or the wet heat pooling between my legs, scenting

CELINE HERRERA POV The shot was a warning and Delia flinched, getting distracted for a second, but that was all I needed. I shoved at her hard and she fell to the floor, a gasp escaping her lips. The gun skidded out of her hold and she crawled after it. I got it before she could, then I kicked her in the face with my leg. She grunted, her head smacking against the hard concrete. She slumped to the floor, blood seeping out of the cut on her head. The cops lying in wait all rushed up to the roof, then they swooped in and grabbed her by the arms, handcuffed her hand, and dragged her to her feet. Delia looked around wildly as her shock wore off, and then her gaze met mine in disbelief. "How... How" she stuttered but I felt no pity for her. I'd always wanted her to pay for her crimes and now that it was happening, It felt like a breath of fresh air."It was pretty easy Delia. You are not as sly as you think you are" Once I was sure they had her secure, I walked toward her and wasn't s

CELINE HERRERA POV "I'm so glad you are here Grandma. I thought you wouldn't make it" Grandma held my face In her hand, a smile on her face. "I would travel over the seven seas just to celebrate you, my child.""Aww, that is so Sweet. I am so sorry for the stress though. It must have been exhausting for you""You don't have to apologize. I should be able to do this much after everything that happened" I frowned. "Didn't we say we were going to forget about that, Grandma?" "Oh right, we said that. I'm sorry, I keep forgetting about that. You look so beautiful by the way. You're so pretty, it's making me tear up" she said and I laughed "You're going to make me cry too, Grandma"She patted my head and then looked around. "Where is Belshar. Why isn't he here by your side? He's been gone for a while hasn't he""I'm sure he'll be back soon," I said, glancing around. The music suddenly got louder and the DJ encouraged everyone to get on the dance floor."See, he should be here with you.

DELIA HERRERA POV Celine was smiling and moving through the crowd. She looked so happy that it made me sick. I watched as she spoke with some group of people, the happy smile on their faces making my fist clench. Bunch of people pleasers. I was sure most of them didn't even like her. They were all just pretending so that they could get something out of her. It had been annoying to find out that despite all the money I'd siphoned out of the company, she'd still managed to rebrand it and keep it running. Then she went on to change the name, erasing Herrera from it. She destroyed my very legacy. All the time that I suffered, she'd spent it in achieving great things and being happy with Belshar.Tremor racked through me all of a sudden and I swayed on my feet. My hand trembled and my body grew hot. I knew exactly what I needed. The darn pills that Zane had gotten me addicted to. Why hadn't I taken the stupid pills? I thought I could survive without them but now as I shook like I was c

BELSHAR NESSAR ABED The party was in full swing. My gaze stayed on Celine as she laughed and mingled with the guests, and I couldn't help but fall deeper in love with her. She was so damn perfect, she made my heart ache. As if attuned to my gaze, she glanced up and our gaze clashed. Her eyes brightened, then she blew me a kiss. I made a show of catching it then grinned as she grinned bashfully and put her hand over her heart.I mimicked her gesture and then gave a nod back. Celine's smile widened, but then she pressed her lips together and pointed with her chin that someone was behind me."Belshar" My expression hardened as I turned to face Kail. It was one thing that Celine had invited him to the party but that he was shameless enough to come was another. "Thanks for inviting me..." "Don't bother with that Kail, I didn't invite you. I am also sure you know how I feel about you being here. Didn't I warn you to stay out of my sight" He blanched, then stepped back. "I just wanted

DELIA HERRERA POVZane was right about everything and I hated that he was. His words rang in my head, driving me Insane.Wanting to get rid of those voices In my head, I reached for the bottles of pills, my hands trembling as I uncapped them. I glanced inside it and noticed that there wasn't much left Inside. I frowned, wondering just how many I'd used up in two days, then recalled that each time I felt even the slightest discomfort, I'd drowned the pills as if they were the solution to all my problems... Maybe they were. I didn't feel as shitty when I was high on them.I picked out two of the pills and then stopped as I brought them to my mouth. Was I really going to do this too myself? Was I just going to watch everything crumble like dust around me?I couldn't. Throwing the pills away, I capped the bottle shut and got up from the bed.A quick shower helped to reduce the tremors in my hands and also helped clear my head."You are Delia Herrera, Delia," I told myself because it was

DELIA HERRERA POV "You said you wanted to watch me kill Celine. It's been three days now and you still haven't told me how that's going to happen. Are you stalling because you're having second thoughts? You've also been spacing out lately. Are you thinking about her " I asked unable to keep it in.After the last sex we had on the day he arrived, he hadn't touched me and it was driving me Insane just thinking that it was because of Celine. It was infuriating and recalling his words about how he was going to let me kill Celine because he couldn't have her made it worse."Are you not going to answer me" Zane glanced at me from across the table then sighed, before flinging his spoon to the wall. "Can you stop? You're fucking ruining the romantic atmosphere, Delia" he growled but I was too pissed off to care about his anger."You're so fucking delusional. There's nothing romantic about this setting" I screamed then dragged my hand through my hair, before clutching at it tightly and pull

CELINE HERRERA POV "I think I am going to take some time off work" I got out and Belshar's gaze jerked to mine in surprise as he stopped pacing.He'd been walking in circles for a while and at first I just thought he was agitated from excitement, he was, but he was also worrying and I could see it on his face.Belshar was damn perfect at hiding his emotions, so if he was so expressive this time, it meant he was really stressing over it."You are" he asked, his tone disbelieving. Deep down I knew he was throwing a fist in the air. "Are you sure about that" I gave a quick nod, then smiled. "Yes, I'm sure. I think Karen should handle things in the meantime. She's really the best at what she does. I'm sure she'll be able to handle things in the office without me, Besides, I feel like if I don't stop working, You're going to pace a hole into the ground" I joked, then narrowed my eyes "Tell me the truth, you were trying to come up with a reason to make me stop going to work, weren't you"

CELINE HERRERA POV "Congratulations, Celine. You are approximately four weeks pregnant" the doctor announced and I jerked into a sitting position, my eyes widening as I looked from the doctor to Belshar whose jaw was literally on the floor.He'd stepped inside the room just in time to hear the news and It was a miracle that he didn't drop the glass of water he'd gone to get."I'm pregnant?" I asked dazedly.It was quiet for just a second and then Belshar threw a fist in the air. "Yes! That's what I am talking about" he grinned as he rushed at me and engulfed me in his strong arm, then he proceeded to pepper kisses all over my face while I struggled to shove him off. "Oh my god, Belshar" I groaned even as I laughed. "You're suffocating me" I got out and he quickly let go of me. "Are you alright? I didn't mean to hold you like that" he asked as he looked me over, worry written all over his face. "Will you cut it out? I am perfectly fine. Stop fussing already" "You're carrying a ba

DELIA HERRERA POV "A present," I asked, my heart thudding hard against my ribcage. Zane nodded. "Yes, I did. " He said and pointed to the shopping bags he had dropped beside the bed. It wasn't what I was curious about but I forced a smile to my lips. I've learned that if I was patient enough with Zane, he would eventually tell me what I wanted to hear."Thank you so much, Zane," I said and picked them up, my hands trembling. Zane noticed it and my breath hitched in fear when he frowned. He grabbed hold of my hand and I held my breath, waiting for him to hurt me. "Have you been skipping out on your pills You're shaking so badly" I let out a gasp of air. "There are only two pills left and I didn't know what day it was. You've been gone for so long..." "I was gone only for a weak" I fidgeted. Had it really just been a weak? It felt so much longer. "You never let me go out of the house, so I can't tell how long it's been" "Are you saying you want to go outside""No of course not
